HTML code is removed (TinyMCE)

Question

I'm trying to replace the hyperlinked text in my template with a different phrase using the WYSIWYG editor. Why does it break the link when I insert a space?

Answer

This is an intentional design in the TinyMCE tool, which is a third party implementation in the platform.  The WYSIWYG tool forms an HTML document by creating an IFRAME and a pseudo-document complete with its own Because of this, the tool removes the tags entered in the code.

This issue does not exist with the CKEditor added in v8.2.
